> Error occurs in a clean site with only the one product installed.

To clarify: other products are present in the Plone instance, but in the site that I used for testing, only the one product is in the 'installed' area.

Normally, I would test on a completely clean installation but at the moment (with Mac OS X 10.6.x) I can't do so.
